Thanks guys.
I'd hazard a a guess this is one of the only sheet metal manifolds being made over here.
The big shops don't have the time or the inclination to take on Mickey Mouse projects.
I'm learning as I go and the ideal situation would be to have a really good machine to weld Aluminum
but I only have 220v house hold power. The good machines are all 380v but I'm still useless at Ally welding.
Tom Burkland suggested a few mods to the intake and I will incorporate them in the future.
Next step is to fabricate the 8 runners. Not for the meek I guess.
Mike, no one shows up here. Not a soul. Local interest is at zero. I work like you do only with a little more space in the shop.
I really thought guys over here would be queuing up to get involved.
Past experience showed that as soon as you make it big, they come. These guys just want to wear the uniform and pose.
